_Today, a record number of Americanos can't afford rent and they may think they've got it bad on their side of the Atlantic, but spare a thought for the little island on the other side of that great ocean. A land of black taxis, red buses, stiff upper lips, and corrupt property factors. What is a "property factor", I hear you Americanos ask. Well, a property factor is a private company which is supposed to take care of the maintenance of private homes or apartments in a neighborhood, and they do this by employing plumbers and electricians and cleaning companies, etc. That is, a property factor is a "bridge" between homeowners/tenants and the actual people who carry out the actual maintenance. In return, the homeowners/tenants pay the property factors (a.k.a. residential factors) a fee (perhaps monthly, and perhaps other fees as well, as is deemed necessary by the factor themselves.) But this is where the trouble (for the homeowners/tenants) starts. When they the sign the Deed which (among other things) says that they will pay a collective fee to the property factor, the ability to choose whether or not they wish to pay is essentially and legally taken away from them. It's like collective punishment. They may own their own home and may not want to be burdened by the maintenance of common areas in an apartment (for the SIMPLE reason that they don't live in an apartment!), but their hands are tied -- they signed the Deed (without doing so they'd not have been able to own their own home in the first place) and they are now at the mercy of the property factor who (if they are dishonest, and in most cases in this country, they ARE) can inflate charges, and bully and threaten homeowners with legal action if they refuse to pay up. Probably the WORST property factor in the UK is called _*_James Gibb Property Factor_*_ based in Scotland. This company is, for all intents and purposes, a _*_criminal organisation._*_ They will charge astronomical fees (far above and beyond what other factors would charge for similar "services") and they won't answer emails or phone calls from apartment residents when they complain about a broken elevator or light fixtures or dampness on a wall or leaky plumbing or a backed up toilet. The Directors of this wretched company have been STEALING money from clients for years, but no one can stop them. In fact, the _*_Group Managing Director of James Gibb_*_ happens to be the _*_CHIEF EXECUTIVE of the PROPERTY MANAGERS ASSOCIATION SCOTLAND (PMAS),_*_ I kid you not. That is how corrupt Scotland has become. James Gibb's No.1 priority is to squeeze as much money as possible from clients and use intimidatory tactics to prevent them from taking to social media to air their grievances about this criminal company._ If you look at uk.trustpilot.com/review/jamesgibb.co.uk and read all the POSITIVE reviews about James Gibb factors, you will notice the similarities in word construction and style of writing. Several posters have noticed this. I am pretty sure that *James Gibb* has employees writing FAKE reviews in order to counterbalance the dozens of NEGATIVE (genuine) reviews by disgruntled clients. This company is really, really insidious and corrupt. But they know no one will stop them, least of all the Scottish Government. One more thing. Whenever you see on a BAR CHART the number of one-star reviews versus the number of five-star reviews, and you see that they are the two biggest bars, and two-star, three-star, and four-star, are nowhere near as big as ONE and FIVE stars, you can bet that the chart has been manipulated. This is because, mathematically, things tend to assume a Gaussian shape, or a bell shape with the median being the highest, e.g. distribution of IQ takes on a bell shape. But here, you have the median being the least, and that's a giveaway that the distribution is fake as f#%k.

Their house is too red, I find.

Probably this house price is increasing dramatically since the Nokia era
